Every latest entry in the Assassin’s Creed saga brings with it a new element to play — and Mirage is no exception. Assassin’s Focus is the new stealth feature that enables you to rethink moves in advance before directly plunging head-on swiftly only straight into trouble. Slowing down time for you to size up your targets and execute them in one fell swoop makes you a true stylized assassin. The best part is that it excels perfectly in both being undetected and maintaining the good old flawless assassin image.
This guide tells all the essential details you need to know about Assassin’s Focus in Assassin’s Creed Mirage and explains how to activate and use it.
How to Active Assassin’s Focus in Assassin’s Creed Mirage?
For the controller gamers among us, all you need to do is press and hold the right stick. But if you’re part of the keyboard and mouse crew, hit the ‘R’ key to use the feature. When you activate Assassin’s Focus, you’ll notice the world around you takes on a different hue, a sign that you’ve entered the focus mode. You now can scan the battlefield, mark your targets, and create a symphony of stealth that’ll leave your enemies none the wiser until it’s way too late.
But to use this feature, you need to have a full Focus Bar. So, before you can activate Assassin’s Focus in Mirage, you’ll need to fill that Bar by staying stealthy and killing enemies without getting noticed. The more silent takedowns you perform, the quicker you’ll get to enjoy the perks of Focus. The fuller your Focus Bar, the more enemies you can mark with circles at the moment and finish them in one smooth, choreographed sequence.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage: How to Use Assassin’s Focus
With the Focus Bar glowing full of potential, it’s time to use Assassin’s Focus. Here’s how you can use it:
- The first step on this stealthy journey is to activate Assassin’s Focus. As we already told above, give that right joystick press (or hit the ‘R’ key if you’re a PC player).
- With time in slow-mo, you can scan the area and mark your targets with small circles above each of them. Use the RB button on controllers and right-mouse click on PC to hover over the enemies you want to bid an early goodbye.
- Now hit the A button if you are on Xbox otherwise tap the Launch to perform your assassination sequence. Watch as your assassin dances through the marked targets, delivering swift and silent takedowns. It’s a sight to behold, a ballet of death that leaves foes clueless and you, a step closer to mastering the art of stealth.
Tips for Effectively Using Assassin’s Focus
Every maestro needs some fine-tuning to perfect their craft. So, here are some stealth tips that’ll help you use Assassin’s Focus like a pro, making every move a stroke of lethal artistry.
- Survey the Battlefield: Before your head first, take a moment to check out the battlefield. Scope out opponent positions, patrol routes, and hidey-holes. Knowing the terrain is half the battle, and with the Focus option under your control, you can plot your moves as you wish.
- Stay in the Shadows: Stay hidden, move quietly, and let the shadows cloak your presence. It’s all about the element of surprise, and with Assassin’s Focus, you can deliver a move they never hoped coming.
- Choose Your Targets Wisely: Not all foes are created equal; some are mere pawns, while others are knights in shining armor… or well, clunky metal. Use Assassin’s Focus to mark the heavy hitters and the watchmen first. Taking out the eyes and muscles of the operation makes cleaning up the rest a cakewalk.
- Practice Patience: Rushing through might be exhilarating, but patience is where the true power lies. Take your time, mark your targets, and wait for the perfect moment to strike.
- Upgrade Your Abilities: By upgrading your skills, you become a more lethal assassin and sharpen your focus, letting you pinpoint more targets and extend your reign of stealth.
- Experiment and Adapt: Every mission is a new canvas, a chance to experiment with Assassin’s Focus. Adapt to the situation, switch up your strategies, and discover new, creative ways to use this feature to its fullest potential.
The combination of strategy and the strength to prepare for the emergencies set the rookies from the heroes. It is with Assassin’s Focus in your gear that you are bending it to your desire, one silent elimination at a time. Thus enter the strategic depth of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and let every mission be a testimony to your evolution into the premier stealth and strategy.
